The Euro has surged against peer currencies, as the President of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde commented that the ECB would hike interest rates in July. The EUR/USD reached to the news with a surge of 78 points or 0.73%, which resulted in the rate reaching the 1.0675 level. The 1.0675 acted as resistance, which caused a retracement to the 1.0650 mark.
